Why is the user blacklist not working?

[K14M]

One user in the Steam manuals discusses topics not at all related to the manual or the game of that manual. Therefore, I have added this user to the blacklist to not see the nonsense that he writes. But the blacklist does not work. Every time he writes something I get a notification of a new post in this guide because I am subscribed to new posts in this guide.

Why does the notification system ignore the blacklist settings? Why do I see notifications from a blacklisted user? I added him to the blacklist so I wouldn't have to read it, but nothing has changed!

You may need to unsubscribe from the thread.
All it is doing is telling you there is a new post, it has nothing to do with who is posting.
Unsubbing from a thread will stop all notifications from that thread.

cause the block function is poorly made.

I agree, you shouldn't see any notifications from blocked users, nor any interaction, nor be run out by unsubbing from said guide, forum, or otherwise.

have a nice day

Did you read what I wrote carefully? Why should I unsubscribe from the whole topic because of one destructive element? I am interested in this topic and I want to read it, but I don't want to read ONE particular USER!

And useless tech support instead of passing my complaint to the proper place sent me to this section of the forum, which I would like to read developers Steam client.

All subbing does is tell you when there's a new post. It doesn't matter who it's from. Your options are unsub and just check on the comments manually, or just deal with the fact some of the posts you're notified of are from the blocked user. Steam's blocking system and notifications system are completely separate from one another, just the way it is.

So I should just accept that the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ blacklist doesn't work?

It works the way it's intended to. Again, subscribing to a thread just notifies you when there's activity in the thread. That's it. It's not connected to your block function at all. And since the only ones who can do anything about it is Valve, and they sent you here.... yes.

congrats, you just discovered that the thing that's supposedly meant to do something... actually does basically nothing. surprise!

Yeah, the block and notification systems both leave much to be desired
